Louis Theroux, Most Hated Family.

I'm watching it again tonight. What a hateful shower of retards these people are. IT is terrible listening to the vile thoughts they are perpetrating onto the poor children they have in the ranks.

Like we dont have our own home grown religious hatred that sees nutters turning up at homecoming parades of soliders killed in conflict or a negative attitude to homosexuality.

This is one small baptist church with small membership that have made a big impact in the media. Numbers wise we have a bigger problem.

Maybe Louis Theroux could make a similar docu over here? Would be more groundbreaking than the usual soft target of Christianity.

sounds pretty standard to me. All religions brainwash their childre how else would anyone believe the h0rsesh1t spouted by any of the religions.

After a spate of being bullied, my bf's cousin found comfort with her local church (in Wisconsin, USA). At first it all seemed good for her, until she moved to the UK with the Church and went to stay in a retreat somewhere in Sussex with them. She was there for nearly a year and it is truly like she has been brain washed. She's a different person. And some of the stuff she comes out with is gob smacking. She's not quite at their level yet but it's worrying to think what these people are putting in a young girls mind that we don't know about.

Boo, you may well be right, it might be interesting if I look back through that post. Also, you are right I suppose, and I don't complain, it is just an issue that I deal with in my own head.

I don't think I want to see that. It will make me angry and upset about the young children who have to live with this rubblish.

'retreat in sussex'; this'll be near Haywards Heath. For some bizarre reason there seems to be a plethora of religious cults that have based themselves in this area.

when my sister lived in east grinstead we drove down past the mormon temple in lingfield (london lds). it always seemed very austere and gave me the heeby-jeeby's. not some ewhere i would want to be inside.

I saw this and the previous programme and it made me upset and angry seeing children brainwashed with the thoughts of adults (evil thoughts?)...which IMO a lot of religions do as commented on here by others.

Sometimes I wonder if bringing these cults to the attention of others by the way of documentaries is just giving them publicity which is probably the wrong thing to do. IMO much of any religion is very devisive which surely isn't meant to be the case if it's a good philosophy/ethos?
